Asian American? Chinese French? Vietnamese Italian? Korean Japanese? Filipino Mexican?
Do you ever feel misunderstood or silenced down?
Do you feel like you’ve been otherized, sexualized, objectified or patronized?
And do those feelings have anything to do with your Asian-ness?
Racism is not only about throwing rocks at people and telling them to go back to their own country.
Racism is also this:
Because no one cares about your racial fetish.
And this:
Because not all Asians do or should look like K-pop stars or anime characters.
And this, too:
Mangaka means cartoonist in Japanese. It’s not a status you can earn by entering a country.
Or, even this:
Uhm, because Memoirs of a Geisha isn’t even written by an Asian author and it has nothing to do with Asian voice? Also probably because not all Asians are Japanese?
